Hi everyone, here I am with a new weekly challenge, this time it's Wednesday, over Simon Says Stamp Blog...The theme is 'STENCIL IT' so I had my share of fun with my stash for a page in my Art Journal...

I gessoed the page, dried it and bent it for a worn look, cracking the gesso.I used the Distress Inks mini pads directly on the journal, then misted it with water and let the colours run. Dried, placed a stencil on the page and removed part of the ink underneath with a baby wipe.With the same stencil I applied modeling paste. Then moved to another stencil and used Distress Inks. Distressed the borders, added a 'crackle' stamp here and there and enhanced the cracks in the gesso with Vintage Photo distress ink...I really love this effect!!!I stamped the feather twice with Staz-on Timber Brown, one on the page and one on watercolour paper. I painted the latter with Tombow dual brush pens, cut it out and stuck it down with foam tape.Eventually I stamped the word 'FLY' using Dylusions 'Clearly Alpha', And that's that!
